Bought this blower to supplement the association's snow removal service. It's easy to store, lightweight, no cords or gasoline needed. As for the batteries I would recommend to charge and store them where it's warm. Warm batteries run longer than cold ones.
Got to break in my new electric shovel, it did a pretty good job! We got our first big snow (7-8”) and it was pretty wet, the shovel held up ok, after the pile gets larger, it cuts off. I was also not happy with how mine was packaged, it looks used (Lowe’s fault, not the product itself) overall, worth the money!
